That "veteran leadership" shit goes out of the window if the dude is costing you on the court. I don't care how many playoff games he's been in, Derek Fisher doesn't deserve to be on an NBA court. He can give you that "experience" and "leadership" as an assistant or in the locker room.

Scott Brooks values veteran leadership and experience way too much, especially when Fisher and Perkins are complete liabilities on the court. If I was the coach, Collison and maybe even Perry Jones would get all of Perkins minutes and Reggie Jackson and Lamb would get all of Fisher's minutes.

He basically single-handily kept us from getting more separation in Memphis the other night after we had a 4 or 5 point lead late, because Mike Conley and Jerryd Bayless were abusing him on offense. And in the Denver and Memphis back-to-back games, he was a combined 0/8 from the floor and took some ill-advised shots. But, sure Scotty, whatever you say.
